Higashi Kobe

Type: Cable-stayed
Location: kobe, Japan
date of completion: 1992
span: 1,591 feet
other info: Because of the large number of storms and typhoons in Japan, very few cable-stayed bridges have been built.  The Higashi-Kobe bridge was the result of years of computer assisted analysis of weather effects on the proposed structure.
